David Peterson’s latest Mets outing leaves Carlos Mendoza raving
NY Post
The Mets don’t know when — or if — Kodai Senga is coming back to the rotation.
And Jose Quintana has been far from his best of late.
But they’ve gotten a complete-game shutout from Luis Severino over the weekend and a strong outing by Sean Manaea, which gave them a boost against the Marlins.
Then David Peterson went out Monday night against the Orioles and delivered what manager Carlos Mendoza called “probably the best outing of the year.”
The lefty gave up just an unearned run until a wacky seventh inning of the Mets 4-3 win over Baltimore at Citi Field.
He tossed a season-high seven innings, and were it not for a fluky balk that scored a run and briefly threw Peterson off his game, his line would have been even better.
It wasn’t perfect. Or even pretty.
With the Memphis Grizzlies open to trading Ja Morant, his camp should be focused on one thing if they have any say in the situation, as oftentimes stars do.
In an ideal world, Jaxson Dart would have an SEC get-together of sorts in the Big Apple.
From the perch of Mika Zibanejad, this has been different. The Rangers still lost plenty of games at the start of the season. Still unintentionally constructed the shaky foundation that has since cratered all the way to last place in the Eastern Conference.
The Yankees are signaling a wiliness to do not just one opt-out, but two opt-outs for Cody Bellinger in continuing efforts to bridge the long-standing issue of length of contract.
SAN FRANCISCO — Landry Shamet returned from a 25-game absence and scored six points in 16 minutes in the Knicks’ 126-113 loss to the Warriors on Thursday night.
SAN FRANCISCO — Jalen Brunson’s troublesome right ankle cost him a high-profile showdown.
The Giants’ agreement with John Harbaugh to become their next head coach was inside the 1-yard line and up to the lawyers to run a successful Tush Push.
EDMONTON, Alberta — Put this one on the Vezina Trophy résumé for Ilya Sorokin.
Mike Tomlin offered a heartfelt parting message to DeMeco Ryans on Monday night after coaching what would be his final game for the Steelers.
SACRAMENTO — Jalen Brunson’s Achilles heel is his right ankle.
What the Mets won’t offer in contract length, they’re more than making up for in just how much they are willing to pay Kyle Tucker in a short span.
Perhaps Kirk Cousins sees the writing on the wall.
